The voices could be the superego in an auditory form. They can be very controlling at times. The superego has it’s form as the conscience or ego ideal. Showing more insight and understanding of the voices can be very helpful, they’re actually trying to help us when you realise why it “needs” to be so aggressive and controlling.
I am going to let my voices post and reply to other users if able to.
I was diagnosed 2 years ago, for drug induced disorders. Eventually “got better” about 7 months ago. Havent took meds since then, but the only thing that lingers is a cycle of thinking that makes me think I’m speaking to others through my thoughts. Obviously a dillusion to me. But I’ll never believe that it’s not happening. But I really relate to a person that posted in another thread saying they miss their “delusions”, kinda like it’s losing an old friend. And knowing I would never want to feel that out of control again. I genuinely do miss, what I believe to be an alternative way of thinking.
This sounds interesting
